My whole car is Led, together with flashers for Led.
The headlight Leds have their own drivers close to the Led-bulbs.
No relays and the am-meter barely moves with high-beam on (At 650 rpm.). :thumbsup:
I didn’t actually cross reference them, but I found all of my bulbs at this place.

another place.. haven’t used these folks though
53 LEDBulbs (Sold In Pairs)
Here is the link for the LED Flasher.
I replaced all my lights except headlights with LED's, so I want to confirm which bulb I used for the dash lights.
There were different bulbs and bases everywhere.
I'll check it out tonight, and get that link to you tomorrow.
Happy Holidays !!
There should be 2 flasher units, one for normal turn signals and 1 for the hazards. If you have LEDbulbs/lights in the turn circuit you will need either/and an LED flasher unit (for both) and/or a resistor. Just google "LED resistor" and you will see them (gold looking deals with a wire coming...
I put LEDbulbs in my '62 cluster. I also replaced the bulb sockets due to the different type/style of contacts (wire vs tab). No other mods needed. I got mine from HiPo Parts Garage .
1967 coronet 440 station wagon w 318.
we changed the voltage regulator to a solid state one along with a new alt and all new headlites and bulbs(not led)
we were having trouble with the stock temp gage and decided to put an old school triple gage set in for the nostalgic look and to make sure it...
Most people tend to cut the wires of the existing ballast for the florescent leaving it there and then install the LED driver (ballast) next to ballast.
Just a side note . . .
when you change to LEDbulbs, since they have a much smaller current draw, your flashers might no longer work properly ! !
By the way . . . this could also cause the turn signals to not flash too ( probably just light and stay on )
Simple solution . . .
look for an...
Did you have to change anything to be able to run the LEDs? Do you have the bulb numbers? I'd sure love to be able to see my '66 Coronet and Imperial dashes both at night as well as I can see my late-model drivers.
ok.. cool my reverse and first buttons are working as intended then :) I did all new bulbs also.... I'm planning on LEDs for the tail-lights and front turn signal/running lights, LED's in the dash are just too bright
I got mine from Cars, Trucks, and SUVs - Vehicle Lighting | Super Bright LEDs
Not sure if they are better or worse. I tried red ones in the tail lights and they looked a little more orange than red, so I went back to clear.
Thanks charger, got it all apart and was no biggy.. glad i did, it all needs a good cleaning.. those plastic push buttons/stalks look fragile.. gonna order all new bulbs, trying to decide on led or normal.. i kinda like how soft the normal lights are
...all around the car brake lights, reverse lights, turn signals and head lights. I have a 1964 chrysler id like to upgrade all the bulbs to LEDbulbs, i read somewhere that it will be fine everywhere except headlights? That it jeeds some type of resistor ? .. can someone point ne in the right...
I bought them from the Superbright LED web page. The LEDs are a direct replacement for the stock bulbs. I ordered the green bulbs and left the original blue diffusers in place.
I did all this back in 17 and im only interested in the 4 lights on low conversion which I just figured out. Depending on your charging system it’s only going to cost you around 3 amps total to go to a 40 amp bulb and they are way brighter. Octane already has a 25w bulb which would be good for...
This has been INCREDIBLY helpful!!! If I'm understanding this all correctly (?)
1. Not all LED 1157's fit. I kind of figured this out when I looked at superbrightleds.com. They all had the same socket, but different sizes. 1" diameter sounds about right. superbright had one 1" dia. LED bulb...
